Cross-posting to openipmi and linux-i2c...
There are four patches from Cavium starting with
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/1/18/12 that fix an issue with the xlp9xx driver
that causes ipmi_ssif not to be able to detect a platform BMC.
I have two different pre-production hardware chassis that are affected by
this issue and I don't see that the patches were included in v4.15.
I wonder if either Corey or Jean could/should pick these up and submit
upstream? There doesn't seem to be a MAINTAINERS entry for the i2c-xlp9xx
The driver was submitted Cavium (was Broadcom at the time) The posts don't
seem to have gotten any comments on LKML.
I tested the patches and they fix the ipmi_ssif detection issue I had. So
I'm willing to add "Tested-by" to the patches if that helps.
Would like to see these patches make it up-stream so I can they ask that
they be included in the Red Hat and SuSE distro kernels for ARM64.
Thanks,
Phil P.
